Ǫgmundr sneis Þorvarðsson, Lausavísur — Guðrún Nordal

Not published: do not cite (Ǫgm LvIV)

 

Mér réð á bak bróðir
bǫðvar styrkr í myrkri
(hœg raun vas þat hônum)
Hildibrands at standa,
þás lébrigðir lagði,
(liðinn stormr vas þá orma)
áðr vask feldr til foldar
fóthrumr, á mér spjóti.

Bersi hné, þars breiðar
bitu eggjar lið seggja,
vægðar trauðr at víðri
Vermundar sonr grundu;
létu lagðir spjótum
líf, þars brustu hlífar,
(góð vǫrðu fjǫr fyrðar
fúsir) Þórðr ok Brúsi.

Information about a text: poem, sequence of stanzas, or prose work

This page is used for different resources. For groups of stanzas such as poems, you will see the verse text and, where published, the translation of each stanza. These are also links to information about the individual stanzas.

For prose works you will see a list of the stanzas and fragments in that prose work, where relevant, providing links to the individual stanzas.

Where you have access to introduction(s) to the poem or prose work in the database, these will appear in the ‘introduction’ section.

The final section, ‘sources’ is a list of the manuscripts that contain the prose work, as well as manuscripts and prose works linked to stanzas and sections of a text.
